Meet the newest addition to my skincare regime, the NuFace Facial Toning device. I know it has been around for quite some time now. However, I had to give it a long thought on whether my daily routine needed another step. Usage is simple but besides the device itself you also need a NuFace gel primer for the device to glide over. I’ve only recently started using the NuFace Facial Toning Device and will report back on the visible effects once they become apparent. My goal is to achieve the appearance of a smoother forehead and tighten the jawline. I’ve used several manual facial tightening tools and lifting devices in the past. My experience remains the same, the results last as long as you keep up with the uses. My search remained open solely to find a device whose treatment time was shorter. NuFace uses “gentle microcurrent technology to stimulate muscles…
It feels like an eternity has gone by since I’ve actually been excited about makeup. This past year I’ve skipped practically every step of my makeup routine besides concealer, brows and mascara. However, glow products are one thing I can’t say no to! Like the NARS Summer Solstice Cheek Duo. A limited edition highlighter and bronzer duo, that houses two shades from NARS’ core range (Ibiza and Laguna). One swipe creates a golden hue with a brown base and with a subtle touch of shimmer. Although my beauty buying habits have definitely changed this past year. I would still personally purchase this cheek duo because I don’t already have the two core shades (Ibiza and Laguna) in my makeup collection. $60 CAD for a generously sized pan, justifies the price. Aside from my face, I enjoy a subtle sweep of shimmer across my clavicle and surrounding area and this is…

Today, I wanted to share my thoughts on the stunning Catrice x Eman Collection! I was generously provided a selection of products as a part of the official launch of Catrice Cosmetics in Canada. The collection features three affordable, yet high end quality palettes. Blush tones adorn the packaging of each of these sleek square palettes. Large mirrors and binding that allow the palettes to open up completely are just some of the touches that add to a product. As a product can be stellar but its ease of use determines how often you’ll actually reach for it. The palettes have end to end pans, which means you’re getting more for your money’s worth. Catrice x Eman Eyeshadow PaletteThe eyeshadow palette houses 9 shades. Five satin mattes and four shimmers. The formulation is silky smooth to the touch and rich in pigmentation. This is a drugstore gem! I naturally gravitate…

I recently tried out Laura Mercier’s Sun Kissed Veil Bronzer. Which was a part of Laura Mercier’s Summer launch of their Mediterranean Escape Collection. Mediterranean Escape Collection was a limited collection and although I’m sharing my thoughts at the end of the season. This is one I couldn’t resist sharing. Plus, it’s still available online and Laura Mercier has a similar product available as well. The official description says, ‘Go glamorously off the grid with tones and textures inspired by a bohemian meets jetsetter vibe.’ They weren’t kidding. The packaging is mesmerizing and one that will surely instill the urge to travel in you! I tried out Laura Mercier’s Sun Kissed Veil Bronzer in the shade Riviera Sun. The Sun-Kissed Veil Bronzer, is a multi purpose product. One that can be used on the eyelids, cheeks, body and applied even to your lips! To create the illusion of a pumper…
I am quite particular about blush and often don’t experiment with new shades. As I like natural-appearing rosy hues. I have dry skin and most powder blushes appear as if they’re sitting on the surface of my skin. I also fear going overboard. Hence, why I’m excited to share a product I have in heavy rotation, which is the Shiseido Minimalist WhippedPowder Blush! I know Shiseido as a brand that creates phenomenal skincare and only recently tried out products from their makeup line. The WhippedPowder Blush has their formulation right in their name. It is an air whipped blush that is incredibly light, breathable and provides a natural wash of colour. It dries down to a matte finish. Available in 8 shades. I tried out the shade Sonoya. Each of the shades are named after House of SHISEIDO’s muses. Each blush comes encased in minimalistic packaging, as its name suggests.…
I am back from my short, yet very sweet getaway to Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic. This was my first time in the Dominican Republic and I already can’t wait to go back to explore the other parts of the DR. Such as Santo Domingo! This trip was booked last minute using the travel site cheapcaribbean.com. I’ve booked several vacations with them, so I knew exactly where to go when looking for flight and accommodations on such a short notice. I took a very early flight Saturday morning, which got us into the DR in the late afternoon. As a part of our booking, cheapcaribbean.com bundled together round transport to and from the airport. The transportation company they use is called Amstar. One of the most reliable and reputable companies in the country. We’ve taken them several times before and never endured any hiccups during our vacations. Upon our arrival…
